Chapter 4: Calibration
4.1 Introduction
The ST60 Multi instrument is set up with factory-programmed default settings, so
in order to optimize the performance of the instrument on board a particular
vessel, the procedures in this Chapter must be carried out immediately after the
completion of installation, and before the equipment is used for navigational
purposes.
Where practicable, the calibration procedures are presented diagrammatically to
show the sequence of key presses and the resulting displays. Adjustment
instructions are given where applicable.
EMC conformance
Always check the installation before going to sea to make sure that it is not
affected by radio transmissions, engine starting etc.

The User calibration procedures enable you to:
• Switch chapter titles on or off.
• Set which type of heading (true or magnetic) is displayed.
• Set the voltage at which a battery alarm will occur.

• Set either 12 hour or 24 hour clock.
